Who Regressed the Timekeeper? (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 40
There was nothing more to say when she outright declared herself useless. The Crown Prince’s maid, utterly flabbergasted and left speechless, glared at Amy’s retreating back as she walked away with a light step, muttering under her breath.
‘His Highness the First Prince must become Crown Prince soon….’
Just thinking about the ever-indecisive Crown Prince made her shudder involuntarily. Amy hurried her steps toward the tower where the Crown Prince’s attendants were staying.
Knock, knock, knock. She knocked on the door of Sally’s assigned chamber and waited; after a moment, the door cracked open slightly.
“…What is it?”
Sally peered out through the narrow gap, only half her face visible, glaring at Amy with clear wariness.
“Can I come in? I have something urgent to ask you.”
“…W-weren’t we supposed to pretend we didn’t know each other anymore?”
Sally stood firmly in the doorway, arms crossed, wearing a fierce expression as if to block Amy from entering. Amy, accustomed to this behavior from Sally, spoke casually as if nothing were amiss.
“Just because we’ve been apart for a while doesn’t mean we’ve grown distant, does it?”
“!”
Sally blinked in shock. But only briefly—soon her expression softened completely, and she shook her head shyly.
“No, c-come in.”
As the door swung wide open, Amy strode in confidently as though it were her own room. Sally followed close behind, watching Amy with hopeful, eager eyes. Amy glanced around the room before speaking.
“I have a question.”
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
